The third chapter of Wuthering Waves is just around the corner. This is a very exciting part of the game that fans have been eagerly waiting for since WuW creator Kuro confirmed the leaks that we would be getting Youhu and, most importantly, The Shorekeeper. Here you will find release date and countdown for the start of Wuthering Waves update 1.3and you will also find all the banner characters for each season phase.

While the upcoming release of version 1.3 is very exciting, fans are looking forward to the release of version 1.4 in November. This is because it is going to introduce Camellya, which fans have wanted since the game’s launch, along with a new character called Lumi, who looks 3x better in the game compared to its drip marketing. Additionally, while there’s no ETA yet for when that will be, we’re also looking forward to the day WuWa arrives on PS5.

We still don’t know if WuWa will land on PS5 consoles before the end of the year, but for now, Wuthering Waves update 1.3 is scheduled to arrive tomorrow. The countdown on the release date and start time is over and there will be plenty to enjoy.
